Tbran or others......Are you aware of any future plans for the orange tractorsIJ I saw a press release a while back where AGCO has replaced the orange in their logo with something closer to red, and it seems like the last compact AGCO tractor I saw was nearly Massey red. Massey red tractors simply won't sell in the US. AC orange will, regardless of what's under the sheet metal.

I can't comment on orange vs. red in the U.S., but in my area here in Canada the Massey tractors are selling and people are liking them. Our biggest issue has been a strong dealer network, but that seems to be changing gradually. Personally I think AGCO needs to allow more flexability to its dealers to sell the entire product line, its crazy to have an AGCO dealer close but not able to get parts or buy a product because thy dont have the contract. This is where DEERE and CNH are king you buy a one and you can get parts and service @ any dealer. I am a big fan of the R series gleaner and sure hope they can stay and be refined, but there are some limitations that the Massey_WHITE can adress. At least AGCO is allowing Gleaner dealers to sell this machine as well.
